How do you get the door off the PSDRID wet? #staytuned #innovation #tools #paintlife
What happens here
After the filler has dried, sand the entire surface of the door thoroughly. Use an orbital sander, ideally with a dust extraction system connected via a vacuum hose, to minimize airborne dust. Start with a medium-grit sandpaper (e.g., 180-220 grit) to level the patched areas and remove any raised grain or minor imperfections. Finish with a finer grit (e.g., 220-320 grit) to achieve a super smooth surface ready for primer and paint. Pay attention to all flat surfaces and edges.
Goal: Create a smooth, even surface on the door for painting
